In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for proving the validity or invalidity of a pre/postcondition pair for a program. The algorithm is motivated by the success of the algori...
Agent systems that search the Semantic Web are seen as killer applications for description logic (DL) inference engines. The guiding examples for the Semantic Web involve informat...
In an open distributed system, computational resources are peer-owned, and distributed over time and space. The fact that these resources can dynamically join or leave the system (...
We present a logic programming language which uses a four-valued bilattice as the underlying framework for semantics of programs. The two orderings of the bilattice reflect the c...
